Improving educational outcomes for children through research-led oral language assessment, intervention and enrichment.

About us

OxEd and Assessment is a University of Oxford spinout company that was launched to take the research of Professor Charles Hulme's research group on language assessment and intervention through to practical application in schools. Oral language is the springboard to education but many children entering school have language difficulties. Our early language programme provides early identification, intervention and enrichment for all children with a positive, proven impact in improving early language skills. A series of randomised controlled trials and independent evaluations of our programme have demonstrated its effectiveness in improving educational outcomes. Our language resources support children from preschool through to 11 years old: Assessments: LanguageScreen - a simple, effective digital assessment to assess children's speaking and listening skills and monitor the progress of all children. ReadingScreen - a quick and accurate digital assessment of word and nonword reading that can be delivered by teachers' aids or teachers. When used with LanguageScreen, a Simple View of Reading Report is generated to immediately identify students at risk of falling behind. Interventions: NELI - a 20-week scripted programme providing additional targeted support for those with the weakest oral language skills through small group and individual sessions. NELI Whole Class - a programme of whole class language enrichment activities for all children designed to complement NELI and support teachers in developing all children's language skills. NELI Preschool - a new nursery-delivered oral language enrichment and intervention programme for children in the year before they enter formal education.
